2024-12-10 19:22:34Hearing that Blake had been accepted into Foturnity Corp upset Miguel. He still couldn't accept Blake's claim to be Mr. Hover's messenger.
"What? Seriously." Zuri couldn't believe that Blake had a job now. "It's a big, well-known company, right? There's no way a guy who can't do anything like you can get a job." "Yeah, that's because of me." Miguel smiled proudly at Amora and Zuri, looking in front of them. "I've recommended him to the manager of the company to take him on because he happens to be my cousin." Miguel took advantage of the situation to boast in front of Amora and Zuri. As well as to avenge his earlier hurt to Blake for humiliating him in front of Mario. Amora glanced at Miguel with a small smile. "Ah, thank you, for helping me, Miguel." Amora smiled kindly, feeling happy that Miguel had granted her request. She thought that if Blake had gotten a job, it would at least reduce Zuri's babbling a bit. "Of course." Miguel lifted his collar proudly. "No problem. I did it all because it was for you. If it wasn't for wanting to help you, this lousy guy wouldn't be able to work at that company." Blake immediately glanced at Miguel. The man was again being a big shot and boasting about himself in front of Amora in order to get her attention. "Yes, you were right to ask Miguel for help, Amora. He is indeed a very reliable man. If it weren't for his help, this stupid man wouldn't be able to get a job anywhere because he's useless and can't do anything." Zuri nodded her head while stroking Miguel's arm. "That's why it's better for you to get a divorce from that lousy guy and marry Miguel." Hearing that made Amora let out a long breath. Again, her mother talked about it, especially this time in front of Miguel, who made her feel uncomfortable. "Stop it, Mom. This is not the time to talk about that." Amora folded her hands together with an annoyed look on her face. Amora was tired and fed up of hearing her mother's incessant babbling about this. Even though she had asked Zuri to discuss it later at home, she continued to discuss it even in front of Miguel, who was someone else. Amora could only stare at her mother as a signal to stop cornering Blake. Noticing her daughter's gaze, Zuri frowned. "What? It's obvious, isn't it, that Miguel is so great." Zuri replied to Amora sarcastically. "You're the one who's stupid, still wanting to maintain a household with this damn man. It's enough that he put me in the hospital and broke my bones. You want to wait for him to kill me?" Blake exhaled softly at his mother-in-law's words. "I'm not going to do that, Mom." "Hey, lousy guy, I'm not talking to you. So shut up." She snapped back at Blake. "You should be thanking Miguel for helping you get that job." Blake exhaled softly. "I don't want to." Firmly, he refused. Suddenly, Zuri rounded her eyes and glanced at Blake. "Hey, what a shameless guy. Already given a favour, but ungrateful. You are indeed the most annoying person in the world. At least don't embarrass me and Amora. Hurry up and thank him." Miguel hardened his jaw, increasingly annoyed with Blake's attitude. "Oh, I shouldn't have helped you get a job there. It turns out that besides being poor and useless, you're also a man of bad character." Amora actually felt bad for Miguel for trying to hire Blake, but she didn't want to make things worse. Amora looked at Blake coldly. "Say something, Blake." Blake gave Amora a cold stare. "No." His voice was firm, making Zuri and Miguel, who heard him, even more annoyed. "Absolutely shameless." Zuri snorted in annoyance, giving Amora a sharp look. "You see for yourself how bad your lousy husband is. I told you a long time ago, you'd better divorce him immediately." "Just leave him and we can start a new, happy life." Miguel grinned, satisfied to have cornered Blake. "After all, just getting a job cleaning toilets is already arrogant and pretentious." Hearing that made Zuri laugh. "What, a toilet cleaner?" She looked at her son-in-law with cynical eyes and a condescending face. "You're nothing compared to Miguel who has everything and has a good job." Amora looked at Blake for a moment. Actually, she didn't mind if Blake got any job as long as he could work and reduce Zuri's nagging that Blake was an unemployed man and could only cause trouble. "No, no, no. I'm not working as a toilet cleaner." Blake refuted Miguel's words with a face full of confidence. "I'm the manager there." Miguel and Zuri burst out laughing at the man's words. Miguel even tapped Blake's shoulder, quite hard to express that it was a very funny joke. "You idiot, don't joke like that." Miguel wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes. "You think we'll just believe you? Never mind, don't get delusional. It's still daytime." Miguel chuckled and shook his head. "Just accept your job as a toilet cleaner." Miguel grinned. He couldn't believe what the man in front of him was saying because there was no way that Mario would hire that man as a manager. Even his cousin could get the manager's job after five years of working at the company. "On what basis were you hired as manager?" Miguel raised one eyebrow with a small smirk. "You don't even have any skills. At the very least, you should go to an advanced college and the truth is you're not highly educated, Blake." Zuri let out a rough breath. "Oh, my goodness, Blake. How can a dumb guy like you be the manager of such a famous company? It's obvious that the manager is Miguel's cousin. You're out of your mind." Zuri burst out laughing again as Miguel looked at Blake contemptuously. Even if Blake said he worked as an employee at the company, they still wouldn't believe it because it was impossible, let alone being a manager like he said. "I do work as a manager." Blake looked at Zuri seriously, making Zuri angry. "Do you take me for a fool, huh?" Zuri glared, pointing her index finger at Blake with contempt. "You think I don't know that the company is a big company? Just working as a toilet cleaner is already a big accomplishment for you, so don't look down on me. Don't try to fool me, damn it!" Amora let out a long breath, shaking her head while massaging her forehead vigorously. "Never mind, stop it." She looked at Blake with a deep frown on her forehead. "No need to lie, Blake. Just tell me the truth if you only work as a toilet cleaner." Amora bit her lower lip for a moment. "That's okay. No need to make up things that aren't possible."

Blake emphasized his words to Zuri, "I've told you honestly that I do work as a manager."Miguel was annoyed to hear that. "Ah, never mind, don't make up stories. Are you in a fairy tale?"Yes, my goodness. Your husband is useless, Amora. He's acting like a big shot right now." Zuri snorted in annoyance. She was on Miguel's side and trusted him more than her daughter-in-law.Miguel raised both eyebrows, smiling at Zuri, happy he could now work with the middle-aged woman to further humiliate Blake."He's a very shameless person." Miguel grinned. "What he should do is accept the fact of being a toilet cleaner instead of pretending to be a manager."Blake looked at Miguel with his cold eyes and flat face. "The shameless one is you, claiming credit for getting me hired there."Miguel's eyes bulged. He couldn't believe the man before he dared to say such a thing to him. "You're... insolent."Miguel clenched his hands into fists, moving quickly to throw a punch at Blake, but Blake was quick

"Today, I'll treat you guys." The woman with blonde hair patted her chest proudly."Wow, did something fun happen?" The brunette woman responded enthusiastically.Alice, with blonde hair, nodded enthusiastically. "Yes, you know what? I just got proposed to by my boyfriend."Alice raised her left arm as she moved it, showing her two friends the ring on her ring finger."Wow, congratulations." They hugged each other after congratulating each other. "Is this a diamond?"Alice nodded her head while holding her ring with a little swagger. "Yes, of course.""Why didn't you tell us this happy news sooner?" Amora, who heard that, was also happy.Alice blushed with redness on her cheeks. "I didn't expect that this day would finally come either."Alice rubbed her face with sparkling eyes, recalling the events of last night that made her heart as happy as it was today. "We had dinner last night at a restaurant with a very romantic atmosphere."With a cheerful face, Alice recounted the thrilling

The package courier nodded politely. "Yes, Miss. This package is for you." He assured Amora as he showed her the package box and the bouquet of flowers in his hand with Amora's name as the recipient.Amora locked eyes with the delivery man and finally signed for the newly arrived package."Okay, thank you for taking the time. Excuse me." The deliveryman nodded and walked away from them. "Wow, look at this bouquet of flowers, it's so pretty." Eva brought her face closer to the bouquet and inhaled the fragrant flowers deeply. "I know, it must be a package from one of the guys who likes you." Alice pointed her index finger at Amora. "Steven, Miguel, Barry, or Evans?" Alice knew a few names of guys who liked Amora, especially Miguel who she had met before. "That's pretty awesome." Eva nodded her head, feeling excited about the gift her friend had received. Amora exhaled softly. "I wouldn't accept this package if it was from them." "Oh, Amora. Don't be like that." Alice looked at A

Amora was surprised by what Alice said. She felt that her friend had gone too far."You're just going to embarrass her." Alice emphasized that to Blake. "Amora doesn't deserve this, you know?""Yeah, if you feel like a good husband to my friend, you should be able to give her the real thing."Eva was also annoyed at Blake for humiliating Amora like this."Or if you can't give her the real thing, at least don't give her fake stuff like this. You suck. You really pissed me off." Eva was babbling and very talkative especially when it came to Blake."It's not fake. I gave her the real thing because she's my wife."Of course Blake's words took the two people by surprise and they didn't immediately believe it because they knew very well that Lorax watches were so expensive."Do you think we're so stupid that we can't tell the difference between real and fake Lorax watches?" Alice was really annoyed at Blake's words."I'd rather you buy a 100-dollar flower vase than a real watch." Eva emphas

They all were so surprised to see Blake get out of the car that Amora immediately approached Blake. "Blake?" Amora frowned in confusion. "You're ....""You're home, right?" Blake immediately cut Amora off. "Come on, let's go home."Blake opened the door for Amora, but her two friends immediately approached them and looked at the car. "Wow, this car is really nice. You're the driver, right?"Eva bent her body slightly, looked into the car and circulated her gaze in amazement."Wow, this is really a very luxurious car. The person who owns this car must be very rich." The woman's eyes lit up as she raised her eyebrows in admiration. "No, I'm not the driver." Blake emphasized that point."Alah, no need to lie like that. Just admit it." Alice looked sarcastically at Blake. "That's pretty impressive for a lousy, useless person like you.""Your boss must be very rich." Eva looked at Blake while nodding her head. "If that's the case, maybe you can help me get to know your boss."Eva seemed

This situation made Amora feel uncomfortable because her two friends were with them and she was afraid that it would only make things difficult for Blake.She already knew how the two friends were and they would definitely make Blake pay for their groceries too and Amora didn't want that to happen because she knew how Blake's finances were."What? It's not what I expected." Alice chuckled while grinding her head at the store in front of them now. "Uh, even the longest clothes here look full of dust." Eva pursed her lips while making a face of disgust. Amora just exhaled softly. She had deliberately brought them to another shopping place and it wasn't even unexpected by them before."Well, of course we can't expect much from this troublesome man." Alice glanced at Blake sarcastically. "It can only be to this extent.""I think we're really going into that shop." Eva pointed towards the large store that was their previous stop. "Though I can't wait to humiliate this guy for not being a

"There's no way we're going to eat here." Eva chuckled softly, craning her neck mockingly. "This place is too fancy and I'm sure they'll take us to a smaller place again like before.""Yeah, that's obvious since that lousy guy can't possibly have the money to eat at this fancy restaurant." Alice scrolled through her phone, reading some reviews about the fancy restaurant. "Look, all the ratings are very good and it's certain that the food there must be very expensive."Eva nodded while exhaling harshly. "Ah, my day is really ruined because of that damn man."The two of them continued to babble, whispering behind Amora and Blake. Until Blake finally got out of the car and opened the door for Amora. Of course it made Amora frown. "We're going to eat here?""Yes." Blake answered with confidence. "Come with me."Amora nodded and got out of the car. Of course, that made Eva and Alice rush out of the car as well."Amora, don't have high expectations." Eva raised her voice, laughing along wi

Hearing that, Eva and Alice gave the servant a sharp look. "Huh, what are you saying? The payment has been completed?""Yes, it's done." The waitress replied kindly.Not believing that, they took the receipt from the waiter's hand and looked at the total payment Blake had made.Their eyes widened at the amount written on it. "1.8 million dollars?"That was a huge amount of money, even during the time Alice had been dating her boyfriend, they had never eaten at a fancy restaurant to the point of spending that much money. This was really shocking for her.Both of them were shocked, gulped down their saliva, then looked at each other. They looked back at the waiter to confirm. "Is this correct?"The waiter nodded his head. "It is, Miss. The payment has been completed, according to the note."The waitress again pointed at the receipt, then looked at Blake kindly. "Sir, this is your card. Thank you."The waitress handed the black card back into Blake's hand. Amora who saw that was surprise

"Dammit, how did it end up like this?" Xavier waved his hand in the air, cursing in frustration over his defeat.He never expected that Blake and his people could defeat him so quickly and effortlessly, especially when he had hired the best fighters available. Yet somehow, they still lost.Meanwhile, Zuri lowered her head in front of Xavier, fear creeping into her heart. She was afraid that Xavier would get angry and refuse to help her any longer. After all, he was the one supporting her, and he was powerful enough to do anything.Zuri couldn't afford to lose this opportunity. If she could become part of his family, her life would improve drastically. Among all the men who liked Amora, only Xavier had wealth far greater than the others."Blake, you’ve really made my life miserable," Zuri cursed Blake in her heart, blaming him over and over again.She had been so happy, convinced that their lives would no longer be filled with suffering once Amora married Xavier. They had been just one

"Aw, slow down," Amora winced in pain as Blake applied ointment to her wrist."Sorry, just hold on a little longer," Blake said gently, carefully tending to her injury. He was paying close attention to Amora.The man treated Amora’s reddened wrist with great care—it had been gripped too tightly by Xavier’s men. There were even scratches on her arm from Zuri’s fingernails.With their close proximity, Amora could see Blake’s face clearly, and for the first time, she realized just how handsome her husband was."All done." Blake stroked Amora’s arm lightly after finishing the bandaging with a thin layer of gauze.Amora smiled. "Thank you." Now that it was treated, her hand no longer hurt as much when she moved it.Blake simply nodded before standing up to put the first aid kit away. At that moment, she noticed bruises and several cuts on the back of his arm.Amora recalled the fight earlier—Blake had been up against several men dressed in black. They had fought hand-to-hand, and at one po

Xavier was bewildered as several men in black barged into the wedding venue, forcefully breaking down the door. But what puzzled him even more was that he didn’t recognize any of them. They weren’t his men.“Who are you?” Xavier lifted his chin arrogantly. “You dare to disrupt this wedding and even destroy the venue’s door?”The men didn’t answer. Instead, they stepped forward and positioned themselves behind Blake. Seeing this, Zuri immediately furrowed her brows.“Oh, so you hired some cheap thugs to ruin my daughter’s wedding?” Zuri scoffed, clicking her tongue as she glared at the four men standing behind Blake. “What did he promise you?”She sneered, wondering what kind of lies Blake had told them to make them follow him here. She was convinced that Blake didn’t have the money to pay them.“Listen, don’t be fooled by this fool.” Zuri placed one hand on her waist and pointed at them.“You’re making a mistake by siding with him because this man has absolutely no money. You won’t be

"Mother, this is not right! You're hurting me!"Amora winced in pain as the two men’s grip on her arms tightened. She had been struggling nonstop, trying to break free."I don’t care! What matters is that you accept Xavier’s proposal now." Zuri grabbed a bridal veil and placed it over Amora’s hair. "You are getting married to Xavier today.""No! This can’t happen!" Amora shook her head, desperately trying to remove the headpiece. "I will hate you for this, Mother.""I don’t care!" Zuri yelled directly in Amora’s face. "One day, you will understand that this is all for your own good."Amora couldn’t believe her mother could be this cruel. This was completely illegal!She shot a sharp glare at Xavier. "I hate you," she spat. "This is coercion. You should not be doing this!"Xavier simply raised an eyebrow, unfazed by her outburst. This was an agreement between him and Zuri—Amora’s opinion didn’t matter. The wedding would proceed no matter what.Amora frantically scanned the room, lookin

"Mother, what's going on?" Amora frowned as Zuri suddenly grabbed her hand the moment they arrived home."Just follow me. Don't ask too many questions."Zuri firmly gripped her daughter's wrist, leading her somewhere. Amora remained silent, following her mother's steps."Now, hurry up and change into this." Zuri took out a dress from a large box.Before she could ask, Amora was pulled into the bathroom, and Zuri even closed the door behind her.Amora stared at the dress for a moment. An elegant black gown—but she couldn't help but wonder why her mother wanted her to wear it."Are you done yet?" Zuri called out from outside the bathroom."Just a second," Amora replied as she quickly put on the dress. She would ask about it later.When she stepped out of the bathroom wearing the gown, Zuri's face immediately lit up with delight."Wow, that dress looks absolutely perfect on you." Zuri twirled Amora around. "The size fits perfectly too."Amora remained silent, just as she did when Zuri pu

Zuri and Xavier laughed, thinking it was a very funny joke. Of course, they were more inclined to believe that Blake had merely been there by chance when Liana and her family were confronted by the police, so it seemed as though Blake was the one who solved the problem."You're just a fraud," Xavier emphasized once again. "Don’t act like a hero just to get Amora’s attention.""Yeah, we all know what you're really like." Zuri raised one hand in the air, looking at Blake with a condescending gaze. "You have no power and will never do anything extraordinary."Zuri laughed again, now feeling a little relieved knowing that Xavier would help her keep Romeo and Jason in prison so no one could demand the house.Amarah let out a breath of frustration and looked at Blake. "Blake, are you really the one who got them imprisoned?""Yes," Blake answered firmly."What Blake said is true," Amora defended Blake in front of her mother."Hah, you're still defending this useless man, even though he didn'

"Ah, there she is." Zuri pointed at Amora who had just returned home with Blake. "Where have you been? What took you so long?"Amora looked at Zuri who welcomed her back. But her gaze was drawn to a man sitting across from her mother. Seeing Amora's face full of question marks, Xavier got up from his chair confidently."I came here to help you.""You don't need any help at all."Blake's words instantly made Zuri and Xavier stare at him sharply. Zuri immediately approached angrily."Hey, shut that mouth of yours. He's not like you who runs away when people are in trouble.""At least, I can be useful to Amora." Xavier gave a sharp glance.Zuri nodded her head vigorously. "Yeah, it's a good thing that he's a really reliable guy."Zuri looked so happy to boast about Xavier. After Amora left earlier, Zuri immediately contacted the man and asked him to come here while telling them what had happened and asking for Xavier's help to solve the problem. "Look, he came straight here after mom t

Amora was shocked by the situation. She rounded her eyes to see several policemen seemingly handcuffing her uncle and cousin's hands."Why are they handcuffed?"Some time ago, Amora had just arrived at the gate of Liana's house. The woman looked nervous and hesitant to take a step. She was still on the fence.Occasionally Amora squeezed her hands as she exhaled, trying to strengthen herself. She repeatedly convinced herself that she could do it.Amora's gaze focused on Liana's house. "Whatever happens later, I have to be strong to face it."She didn't want to come here at first, but knowing Blake hadn't been home since early in the morning made her lose hope. Blake had asked her to calm down, but he had left without a word. It was enough to make Amora feel a little down. So she ventured to come to her aunt's house, at least she could get back to negotiating since they were family. She had no money to pay them, so there was no other choice but to beg for mercy."Hopefully Aunt Liana

"Oh, how much are you willing to pay?"Marco furrowed his brow, looking somewhat intrigued by the offer. This immediately made Blake glance at him, but Marco was completely unfazed and remained calm."We'll pay handsomely, perhaps a few million more than your current salary," Romeo smiled as he made the offer. "Think about it. Your salary is really low, isn't it? Probably no more than a million dollars."Jason nodded. "Yes, we can offer each of you 5 million dollars."Liana quickly glanced at her son. That was a large sum to give away just like that to the three police officers, but now was not the time to think about that. Romeo's freedom was the priority.Liana also nodded while clasping her hands in front of her chest. "Yes, we'll pay whatever it takes as long as you release my husband."The two officers behind Marco exchanged glances with each other. They were unsure if their leader would accept the offer or continue with their task."How about it? Or maybe that's a small offer?"
